Healthy Crunchy Bursty Tasty Cheap Salad Lunch - How to eat greens!

[eli76ful]

Good vid, I love trying out different salads and not just because they are healthy, I just enjoy them. You can't beat a tasty salad! Do you have any more recipe video's?

I enjoyed watching.

@eli76ful I'm glad you enjoyed it :-) I only really made the video at a friend's suggestion, so there aren't any others (yet). I now have a new job where I have to take sandwiches, so I'm learning how to make sandwiches interesting with results that are probably worth sharing eventually! For example, I was really surprised that simply stuffing left-over bolognaise between sliced multigrain was really good! The meat makes it chewy, the smell of the tomato is actually nice (I don't like tomatoes)!

Been trying this out recently. It's definitely making me eat better at lunch, rather than miss out on the meal altogether. Importantly, if you have enough salad, you do feel sufficiently full throughout the afternoon.

My own preference is for standard salad mixes rather than the ones suggested here, and I'm no big fan of olives either, but the principle's the same.

@jtchivers Yeah, the leaves are just to get you to chew and, therefore, feel full. They can be anything as long as there are lots of them (like half a lettuce). Ichose Watercress for the elusive honeysuckle smell, Rocket for the spiciness and Apollo is the only lettuce I've found that I like - but I can only find it in packs with other leaves! I'd grow it if I could find the seeds...
